Mr. Chair, just to clarify, I would want to give a complete answer. The commissioner does have the authority to initiate an investigation if she wishes, if she sees something she wants to take a closer look at. But again, at the end of that investigation, all she can do is issue her findings, which are not rulings and aren't binding. They're just recommendations to the company to change. If it was egregious, she could go to the Federal Court, but that court hears the case all over again from the start. It's not an appeal of the commissioner's opinion. It's a whole fresh hearing in court. So there are a few things she could do if she found an egregious situation she wanted to investigate and pursue.
